Non solo i soldati italiani sono stati utilizzati come ascari degli Stati Uniti…

Il paradosso di Stoltenberg: chi bullizza e chi ha i valori.

Il segretario generale della Nato Jens Stoltenberg ha dichiarato ieri: “Pechino osserva con attenzione cosa sta accadendo oggi in Ucraina e questo potrà influenzare le sue decisioni future. La Cina non è un nostro avversario ma bullizza i suoi vicini e minaccia Taiwan, dunque dobbiamo capire e gestire questa sfida”.A inizio mese aveva aggiunto: “la crescente cooperazione tra Russia e Cina…

there's a famous blogger which Im sure is some sort of psyop because her posts are always like "capitalism gave you the ability to not die in a ditch", "we americans have free press not like north korea and china", "degrowth economy is exactly the same as luddism" and "thanks to america people don't starve or die of diarrhea anywhere in the world"

thinking about that post abt wynne's age still. i certainly appreciate that we just casually have characters in their 40s in dai, like vivienne or blackwall, and no one's making a big deal of it, but i feel like there's even bigger missed opportunity with the advisors, yk.

like it was already said many times why cullen as the commander makes no sense and he has 0 required skillset, but imagine if we actually got some retired military commander in his place. like imagine a ferelden general who fought alongside loghain and maric, maybe was a bit older than they were then (bcos they were really young), so by the point of the 5th blight she already retired, she's no longer a powerful fighter, maybe even gathered some disabilities during her military career, but she still knows a lot of shit of how to command armies just fine, she doesn't have to swing her sword to do so. imagine how cool it would be, just this retired general and veteran advising on our military movements. maybe she'd have some unique dialogue lines if loghain is the warden in this worldstate. and instead of being bigoted towards the mages her character arc is about messing with orlesians and we can either endorse it or side with josie that come on, we can't be mean to those envoys even tho they're orlesian, it's not their fault.

“i’m trying really hard to keep it together.” -Ripley

It was a lot for one person to experience; Kat was no stranger to the kind of thing she’d been through. Whole colonies wiped out, and in some cases… a few that were smart, that hid themselves away, that focused on their own survival over saving others… they managed to make it out alive. What they’d seen on this colony, and the fact that they’d found one person alive had reminded her far too much of Akuze. Far too much about listening to her fellow soldiers scream behind her as all she could think about was running. About saving herself.

She was all too familiar with it.

“I know,” Kat responded, her voice oddly soft for her stern, commanding personality. “I’d say I can’t imagine what it was like for you down there, but… I can.” She wished she couldn’t. She wished all she could do was sympathize, imagine what it was like, but she did so much more than that. She understood. She knew the horrors Ellen had experienced. At least they were gone for now; Kat just wished they’d been able to do something for the rest of her team.

Taking a deep breath, she knelt in front of the woman as the shuttle pulled into the bay on the Normandy, her face deeply serious. “Listen, okay? Listen to me. I know you’re a soldier. I know exactly what our training tells us. And when we’re in the field, we need it. We need that focus. We need that separation. But don’t let yourself bury it outside of that.” Not like I did, she wanted to say. “I know this isn’t exactly the… contingent you probably wanted to save you. Cerberus, I mean. But this is my ship—and I don’t work for Cerberus. Everyone here answers to me. I can’t guarantee we can save your crew, but… we can stop this from happening to anyone else.”

Daniel Jackson is my most beloved little meow meow I love the way he starts out very gentle and compassionate but becomes much more jaded and comfortable with violence as the series goes on and I love how despite the “I fucking hate you go away” aspect of their relationship his dynamic with Vala is very much built on a form of trust and moreso genuine understanding because he sees through her and realizes that even if he doesn’t like the way she is she is that way for a reason and he just has to try to understand and also I only watched stargate sg1 one time years ago and haven’t rewatched any of it so I have no idea how much of that is real or intentional and how much i just made up

The thing with 9/11 is that no one cares that much about the death and destruction itself. Buildings fall down and people die all the time, including in the US. Like at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic you had entire 9/11s worth of USamericans dying on a regular basis. If all that damage was caused by an earthquake or faulty building practices or whatever, there wouldn't have been nearly as much fuss about it. It's not as if the insane response from US population was a matter of "two building fall down"

The reason why 9/11 was so upsetting to the US population was their widespread feelings of Imperialist Chauvinism and the subsequent outrage at seeing it so openly and violently defied. The US was at the height of its Imperialist power at the turn of the millennium, a hegemonic superpower that was dominant in some way over more or less the entire world. Whether they'd phrase it in such a way or not, most people in the US were very well aware of this; as far as they were concerned the US was truly the greatest country on the Earth. For some this was a point of pride, for others it was a simple fact of the world. This made them feel secure; bombings and mass killings might happen in those "shithole nations" of the earth but it couldn't happen over there. The US military could wipe entire cities off the map and like maybe that was good, maybe that was unfortunate and maybe it meant nothing at all. Either way that was normal; the violence flowed from the Core to the Periphery.

Until one day it didn't. One day a group of people from that Periphery, from some shithole group of nations, struck back. Now the sorts of destruction they'd seen on TV were happening right outside their window; the US got the smallest taste of the sort of brutality they had long inflicted on the rest of the world. And they did not like that taste at all. The US people as a whole went mad with grief and rage, not at the death of any people but the death of their sense of unquestionable safety and superiority. And the only hope of getting that feeling back was to inflict a revenge so terrible that no one would dare resist or retaliate again.

If bloodshed was how they'd built their empire, only more bloodshed could keep it safe. And this time they didn't even have to feel bad about it. It's not as if the US empire had ever given the world any peace, but now they had the perfect pretense to escalate it to levels not seen in decades. If they talked about this isolated and comparatively limited attack as though it was some great invasion, the US government and its supporters could take all the moral high ground of "self defence" even as they slaughtered impoverished peoples on the other side of the world. So it made sense to treat the 11 September attacks as though they were the greatest tragedy of all time. 9/11 didn't break the US psyche, it just made them express it in a more shameless way. It's not as though genocidal Imperialist violence was anything new to the USA. Afghans were just the new Apaches; the "Middle East" a new "Wild West"
